I have had a great couple of days away, the Tutankhamen Exhibition in Manchester was fabulous and very well presented. I know they replicas, but you forget that when you look at them, and its not as crowded as in the Cairo museum! We visited the Vally of the Kings a few years ago and the tomb, so this was just like the icing on the top! (You might have guessed - I am fascinated by Ancient Egypt).
Its back to normal now, so after shopping this morning I have finished my card for this weeks challenge at House Mouse.
The challenge is to use your favourite stamp - WELL they're all my favourite, OK I do have a couple of favourite favourites, but this one is a new one and I had coloured it up - just waiting to be used!
I don't know what the paper is, but thought it went well with this image and although the plain paper and mats look grey, they are really 'green'! The flowers once again(because I only have one colour in the cherry blossoms) are coloured purple with Promarkers to match the flowers in the image. The sentiments are computer generated.
I am also entering this card in:
House Mouse & Friends Monthly challenge - Love
Fuzzy Wuzzy Challenge - Birthday Wishes
Nearly forgot to say, I won Katina's blog candy - some gorgeous papers, Thanks again Katina.
Thats it for now and if you like what you see please pop back.
